I am very pleased to bring all of you a ‘sneak-taste’ of Girard’s new line of gourmet salad dressings, all of which are tastier than ever! With each variety being as healthy as it is delicious, these dressings are certain to become a part of your culinary essentials.
Here are four easy and delicious recipe’s I put together using the Girard’s salad dressings:
Girard’s Fried Boneless Pork Cutlets with Grilled Veggies & Apricots!!
Ingredients:
2 lbs. bones pork loin – sliced thin
2 cups flour
3 eggs plus a splash of water – beaten
Vegetable oil for frying
Veggies:
1 quart button mushrooms – sliced
1 Jalapeño – grilled
2 bunches of scallions – split
5 cloves of garlic – crushed
1 cup of dried apricots
Handful of fresh Italian parsley - chopped
Olive oil for drizzling
Girard’s White Balsamic Vinaigrette Sauce:
¾ cup Girard’s White Balsamic Vinaigrette
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon butter
For the Pork:
Dip the sliced pork first in the flour then in the egg and back in the flour.
Heat a large frying pan with the vegetable oil, about ½ inch, and carefully place the prepared pork in the hot oil. You should hear it sizzle, if you don’t the oil is not ready.
Turn the pork only once so that the coating does not fall apart.
Veggies:
While the pork is cooking, heat a griddle and place the scallions and Jalapeño on to grill. Drizzle with a little olive oil and grill until slightly charred. Next, place the mushrooms, apricots and garlic on the griddle, drizzle a little olive oil over them and grill until slightly charred. When the Jalapeño is slightly charred slice it with seeds.
Place the scallions on a serving platter first and top with the pork. Place the mushrooms, apricots, sliced Jalapeño and garlic over the pork and sprinkle the chopped parsley for garnish.
Girard’s White Balsamic Vinaigrette Sauce:
In a small frying pan place the tablespoon of butter and melt. Add the Girard’s White Balsamic Vinaigrette and heat to a slight bubble add the honey and stir.
Pour this over the pork with veggies and serve.
This dish is both delicious and quite beautiful to present to your table.
